The Sons of Liberty was a secret revolutionary organization that was created in the Thirteen American Colonies to advance the rights of the European colonists and to fight taxation by the British government. It played a major role in most colonies in battling the Stamp Act in 1765. 1st row: Samuel Adams • Benedict Arnold • John Hancock • Patrick Henry • James Otis, Jr.
2nd row: Paul Revere • James Swan • Alexander McDougall • Benjamin Rush • Charles Thomson

3rd row: Joseph Warren • Marinus Willett • Oliver Wolcott • Christopher Gadsden • Haym Salomon

In the popular thought, the Sons of Liberty was a formal underground organization with recognized members and leaders. More likely, the name was an underground term for any men resisting new Crown taxes and laws.[3] The well-known label allowed organizers to make or create anonymous summons to a Liberty Tree, "Liberty Pole", or other public meeting-place. Furthermore, a unifying name helped to promote inter-Colonial efforts against Parliament and the Crown's actions. Their motto became "No taxation without representation."[4]

Which community or movement is associated with transcendentalism?
Vikentia [17]

The correct answer is C. Brook Farm

Explanation:

The transcendentalism was a movement that emerged in the 19th century the U.S. and focused on the individual and the role of this in society as self- reliant and independent which were ideas influenced by European philosophers such as Immanuel Kant ad Emmanuel Swedenborg. This movement had a great impact on society and because of this different associations and organization based on it were founded and besides this, people tried to integrate those ideas into real communities, one of the most important cases in the U.S. was the Brook Farm that was founded in Massachusetts and was a community and experiment based on some of the principles of transcendentalism.

Therfore, the community that is associated with transcendentalism is the Brook Farm as this was an experiment that applied principles of transcendentalism in real life; also others such as the Oneida Community and the Ephrata Cloister were religious organization and the Fourierims was a philosophy based on Charles Fourier that different from the Transcendentalism and therefore these were not associated with Transcendentalism.

OverLord2011 [107]
You had three estates
1.Nobility
2. Clergy (Catholic Church)
3. everyone else

The clergy and nobility didn't have to pay taxes because they had the backing of the church. In theory all estates had the same job, but it was most always the clergy and nobility teaming up.

What happened to the royal family? Do you think their fate was necessary? Why do you think the Soviets acted the way they did?
almond37 [142]

Answer:

The royal family were assassinated. their fate was necessary because the Romanov's were a symbol of totalitarianism during a period were the soviet union was suffering due to the royal family's decision to participate in the world war resulting is massive casualties and the lack of food for the Russian population whilst the royal family lived frivolously i.e the czar "Nicholas"  bought his wife the Faberge egg which is worth 33 million dollars as of today. The soviets needed a new form of  government who'm would think for the betterment of the people of Russia, by killing the royal family communism would take place because it promised that everything will be shared to everyone equally.  the soviets/Bolsheviks acted the way they did i.e killing the family because the family were a symbol of autocracy(totalitarianism) because they had absolute power over Russia.
